Here we report the serendipitous discovery of asexually reproducing specimens collected from Received in revised form 26 May 2009 Usa, on the Pacific coast of Kochi Prefecture, south-western Japan. Zoids were found to be biflagellate and Accepted 24 June 2009 negatively phototactic. Germination of settled zoids was observed to follow erect-filamentous ontogeny Available online 1 July 2009 similar to that of the previously reported sexual strain. Moreover, the newly discovered asexual strain had identical sequences of nuclear encoded ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer) region to that of the sexual Keywords: strain. On the basis of this finding, we postulate that the ITS sequences may have been maintained in Internal Transcribed Spacer these conspecific strains despite the evolution in sexuality.

Marine Macroalgal Biodiversity of Northern Madagascar: Morpho‑Genetic Systematics and Implications of Anthropic Impacts for Conservation
Biodiversity and Conservation https://doi.org/10.1007/s10531-021-02156-0 ORIGINAL PAPER Marine macroalgal biodiversity of northern Madagascar: morpho‑genetic systematics and implications of anthropic impacts for conservation Christophe Vieira1,2 · Antoine De Ramon N’Yeurt3 · Faravavy A. Rasoamanendrika4 · Sofe D’Hondt2 · Lan‑Anh Thi Tran2,5 · Didier Van den Spiegel6 · Hiroshi Kawai1 · Olivier De Clerck2 Received: 24 September 2020 / Revised: 29 January 2021 / Accepted: 9 March 2021 © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. 2021 Abstract A foristic survey of the marine algal biodiversity of Antsiranana Bay, northern Madagas- car, was conducted during November 2018. This represents the frst inventory encompass- ing the three major macroalgal classes (Phaeophyceae, Florideophyceae and Ulvophyceae) for the little-known Malagasy marine fora. Combining morphological and DNA-based approaches, we report from our collection a total of 110 species from northern Madagas- car, including 30 species of Phaeophyceae, 50 Florideophyceae and 30 Ulvophyceae. Bar- coding of the chloroplast-encoded rbcL gene was used for the three algal classes, in addi- tion to tufA for the Ulvophyceae. This study signifcantly increases our knowledge of the Malagasy marine biodiversity while augmenting the rbcL and tufA algal reference libraries for DNA barcoding. These eforts resulted in a total of 72 new species records for Mada- gascar. Combining our own data with the literature, we also provide an updated catalogue of 442 taxa of marine benthic -
Uncovering Unique Green Algae and Cyanobacteria Isolated from Biocrusts in Highly Saline Potash Tailing Pile Habitats, Using an Integrative Approach
microorganisms Article Uncovering Unique Green Algae and Cyanobacteria Isolated from Biocrusts in Highly Saline Potash Tailing Pile Habitats, Using an Integrative Approach Veronika Sommer 1,2, Tatiana Mikhailyuk 3, Karin Glaser 1 and Ulf Karsten 1,* 1 Institute for Biological Sciences, Applied Ecology and Phycology, University of Rostock, 18059 Rostock, Germany; [email protected] (V.S.); [email protected] (K.G.) 2 upi UmweltProjekt Ingenieursgesellschaft mbH, 39576 Stendal, Germany 3 National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, M.G. Kholodny Institute of Botany, 01601 Kyiv, Ukraine; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 4 September 2020; Accepted: 22 October 2020; Published: 27 October 2020 Abstract: Potash tailing piles caused by fertilizer production shape their surroundings because of the associated salt impact. A previous study in these environments addressed the functional community “biocrust” comprising various micro- and macro-organisms inhabiting the soil surface. In that previous study, biocrust microalgae and cyanobacteria were isolated and morphologically identified amongst an ecological discussion. However, morphological species identification maybe is difficult because of phenotypic plasticity, which might lead to misidentifications. The present study revisited the earlier species list using an integrative approach, including molecular methods. Seventy-six strains were sequenced using the markers small subunit (SSU) rRNA gene and internal transcribed spacer (ITS). Phylogenetic analyses confirmed some morphologically identified species. However, several other strains could only be identified at the genus level. This indicates a high proportion of possibly unknown taxa, underlined by the low congruence of the previous morphological identifications to our results. In general, the integrative approach resulted in more precise species identifications and should be considered as an extension of the previous morphological species list. -
2004 University of Connecticut Storrs, CT
Welcome Note and Information from the Co-Conveners We hope you will enjoy the NEAS 2004 meeting at the scenic Avery Point Campus of the University of Connecticut in Groton, CT. The last time that we assembled at The University of Connecticut was during the formative years of NEAS (12th Northeast Algal Symposium in 1973). Both NEAS and The University have come along way. These meetings will offer oral and poster presentations by students and faculty on a wide variety of phycological topics, as well as student poster and paper awards. We extend a warm welcome to all of our student members. The Executive Committee of NEAS has extended dormitory lodging at Project Oceanology gratis to all student members of the Society. We believe this shows NEAS members’ pride in and our commitment to our student members. This year we will be honoring Professor Arthur C. Mathieson as the Honorary Chair of the 43rd Northeast Algal Symposium. Art arrived with his wife, Myla, at the University of New Hampshire in 1965 from California. Art is a Professor of Botany and a Faculty in Residence at the Jackson Estuarine Laboratory of the University of New Hampshire.

Ariile Protejate – Zone De Conservare Durabilă a Patrimoniului Natural
Ariile protejate – zone de conservare durabilă a patrimoniului natural Viorel ROŞCA Importanţa ariilor protejate Ariile protejate sunt vitale pentru conservarea valorilor globale şi regionale ale biodiversităţii, asigurându-se şi generaţiilor viitoare dreptul de a se bucura de binefacerile naturii, iar respectul faţă de legităţile acesteia constituie de fapt respectul pentru noi înşine. Protejarea acestor „perle” ale patrimoniului natural constituie astăzi un deziderat de prim rang al întregii omeniri, în condiţiile în care nevoile de spaţiu din ce în ce mai mari pentru cerinţele socio-economice au ca impact diminuarea diversităţii biologice în sistemele naturale şi seminaturale şi, implicit, perturbarea mecanismelor de reglaj ale sistemului climatic planetar. Forul mondial – Uniunea Internaţională de Conservarea Naturii (I.U.C.N.) – a stabilit un sistem pentru definirea şi clasificarea ariilor protejate, categoriile de management ale acestora, bine reprezentate şi în România, fiind următoarele: Ia – Rezervaţie naturală strictă (rezervaţie ştiinţifică); Ib – Arie naturală sălbatică; II – Parcuri naţionale; III – Monumente ale naturii; IV – Arie de gestionare a habitatelor / speciilor (rezervaţie naturală); V – Peisaj terestru protejat (parcuri naturale); VI - Arie protejată cu resurse gestionate. Prin constituirea ariilor protejate se asigură conservarea zonelor cu elemente naturale deosebite, nealterate de componente antropice, în care să se desfăşoare în principal activităţi de evaluare şi monitorizare a capitalului natural, de educaţie ecologică şi de ecoturism. Sunt interzise activităţile susceptibile să genereze impact negativ asupra acestor zone, în special asupra componentelor naturale care au constituit baza fundamentării ştiinţifice la înfiinţarea acestor arii. Ariile protejate, prin valoarea lor naturală, ştiinţifică, educaţională şi gradul redus al intervenţiei umane pe teritoriul lor, sunt cele mai bune exemple şi modele de ecosisteme naturale şi seminaturale. -

This means that there is a large extension to obtain these photoautotrophic organisms. Algae have undergone a boom in recent years, with consequent discoveries and advances in this field. Algae are not only of high ecological value but also of great economic importance. Possible applications of algae are very diverse and include anti-biofilm activity, production of biofuels, bioremediation, as fertilizer, as fish feed, as food or food ingredients, in pharmacology (since they show antioxidant or contraceptive activities), in cosmeceutical formulation, and in such other applications as filters or for obtaining minerals. In this context, algae as food can be of help to maintain or even improve human health, and there is a growing interest in new products called functional foods, which can promote such a healthy state. -

In this invited editorial contributed to the Journal of Phylogenetics and Evolutionary Biology a big picture of this ever evolving field is expounded. Application of phylogenetic inference in biosystematics, phylogeography, phylogenetic selection of target taxa in medicinal chemistry, cancer phylogenetics, and linguistic phylogeny are reviewed with a personal perspective summarizing contribution to this interdisciplinary field from my group. Parametric methods such as Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Inference have dramatically improved for last one decade, yet empirical solutions to some of the most fundamental issues, including homoplasmy and lineage sorting, remains to be materialized. Keywords: Cancer phylogenetics; Coalescence; Gene tree; Historical of computers, the field of computational phylogenetics started gaining linguistics; Medicinal chemistry; Phylogeny; Phylogeography; Tree of momentum and arrived at the center-stage of applied phylogenetics. -
